NewsOnline Nigeria reports that the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has announced a five-day warning strike beginning Friday, September 12, 2025, to press home its long-standing demands.
In a statement issued Thursday by the General Secretary of the FCT Administration’s Association of Resident Doctors, Dr. Agbor Affiong, the union said the decision followed an online National Executive Council (NEC) meeting held Wednesday, September 10, which stretched into the early hours of Thursday.
“The NEC members unanimously resolved to embark on a five-day warning strike, commencing at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, 12th September 2025, and ending on Tuesday, 16th September 2025. All centres are hereby directed to inform their hospital managements and continue to press home our collective demands,” the statement read.
NARD President, Dr. Osundara Zenith, had earlier confirmed to DAILY POST that members were prepared to shut down public hospitals nationwide over poor working conditions, power shortages, downgrading of certificates, inadequate remuneration, and other unresolved grievances.
Meanwhile, the FCT chapter of the Association of Resident Doctors remains on a separate seven-day warning strike, which commenced Monday.
